Miracle tits - does partner get to keep them?

193 replies

Boobiliciousness · 13/01/2024 15:16

Partner has come up with a hypothetical that we (weirdly) don't agree on.

The situation: he wakes up and has a pair of actual boobs. They are normal boobs, fully attached the same way boobs are, and he says they can also help out with breastfeeding. The bonus to him is he gets to admire them. He calls them "the miracle tits".

The disagreement: I say the fictional miracle tits have to go back to wherever or whatever they came from. He says his body his choice, and that they stay.

Who is being unreasonable?

In a spirit of fun indulgence I would let him keep the tits and let him take over breast feeding completely for the next 7 months.

In reality, I would be put off my partner physically if he had women’s breasts, no matter how miraculously perky. And I would be doubly put off if he fetishized them and admired them the way he might admire mine rather than the way he might admire his dick.

What are you all smoking? I don't get this thread at all!

Nor me. I’m confused.com

If I woke up with a miracle cock, I would probably have a couple of weeks helicoptering it, peeing standing up, seeing if it gave me the audacity that men have etc then send it back again.

Surely if he kept them they wouldn't be miracle tits, they would just become tits.

Maybe he could negotiate with the miracle tit giver for a week a year with them. I'm sure you could cope with that.

Daleksatemyshed · 13/01/2024 16:03

Has he considered that all his mates would be trying to have a feel? This could be a serious game changer in his friendships 😘

Ask him what would happen if you grew the magical penis at the same time.

(Comes with an automatic 20% salary increase.)

Quite.

My take, he could keep the boobs or me. Not both.

PeggyPoggleshaw · 13/01/2024 16:03

His tits, his body, his choice. Unless, of course, you think it's fine for him to dictate to you what you do with your body?

It's given me a chuckle, anyway. 😆

Timeshare for miracle tits - I'll watch out for that on dragons den

He'd get fed up and want to return them to the ether once he realised how much time his mates spent talking to them rather than his face.

BackCat · 13/01/2024 16:07

This OP made me shudder.

The thought of my husband fantasising about growing his own tits, fantasising about breastfeeding our child with them, and fantasising about this causing me some sort of dilemma - of what? Envy? Feeling sidelined by his narcissistic self containment? Unhappiness that my daughter no longer had a special relationship only mothers can have with their children? Ick ick ick. Trying to get me to picture the freakish sight when I am sexually repelled by female sex characteristics and attracted to male sex characteristics.

What a revolting thought experiment.

Moobs are not miracles, and usually sneak up on you over a period of time (not miraculously overnight)

And most men wouldn't keep them, if they could make then vanish by miracle

therealcookiemonster · 13/01/2024 16:10

manboobs is a real thing... many men have them... its extremely unattractive

also not a very fun fact... men can also have breast cancer. rare, but it happens

whoscoatsthatjacket2012 · 13/01/2024 16:13

Me and DH joke about me having a willy
This morning in bed something was said about him having a hole in his chest. I said if he had a hole there I'd stick my willy in it.
Then we had a conversation whether I should call it my cock
I also tell him off saying my willy is small cos I'd never say that about his.
So it's not just you don't worry 😂

thinslicedham · 13/01/2024 16:14

I wouldn't want my husband if he wanted to keep the "miracle tits". Tbh, I'd have some doubts about him if he even came up with this scenario and stated his hypothetical intention to keep "them".

ETA: To be clear, if he had a medical condition that caused it, I'd support him, but the thought of him sprouting breasts overnight and being so apparently enamoured of them is stomach-churning. And the idea of a man breastfeeding a baby makes me ill, too, I'm afraid. I'd genuinely be giving him the side-eye if my DH brought up this weird topic out of the blue. I'd keep an eye open for other strange behaviour, in case this is the first sign of...something.

TheKeatingFive · 13/01/2024 16:14

He's an AGP. I'd be out the door so fast ...

Iwishmynamewassheilah · 13/01/2024 16:14

Reminds me of the Steve Martin joke where he declares that if he had breasts he’d stay at home and fondle them all day.

Funnier when he said it, sorry,

OR, it's just two people being silly about ridiculous hypothetical situations. It's really not that deep.

If you've not debated whether you want ladybirds for eyelashes or nipples for earlobes, I can only assume that you're probably a bit...dull?

NewYearNewCake · 13/01/2024 15:27

Erm I’d think my partner was having thoughts of transitioning if he came up with this shit.

Oh come on. He’s probably just admired his wives boobs and thought, I’d love to have a pair that I can stare at and grope whenever. The breastfeeding is a red herring.

This.

I can't believe more MNers haven't had the hypothetical conversation with their DH about what would happen if you woke up with a penis for 24h.

He can either let you stick it in him, or let you stick it in somebody else. What would he prefer? Would he welcome getting first refusal?

Janch13 · 13/01/2024 16:22

OP it sounds like you & your husband have too much time on your hands

newtb · 13/01/2024 16:22

Adoptive mothers can breastfeed according to a la lèche League handbook I had. It's thé sucking that produces the hormone that's responsable for milk production.

Liké the idea of a miracle pénis with the 20% pay increase. That sounds a good one.

BingoMarieHeeler · 13/01/2024 15:17

Ew I’d almost definitely not be attracted to my husband anymore (yes my love is conditional 😄). So either the tits go or I go I’m afraid!

Transphobe!!! 😉😉😂😂

how dare you not find a man with breasts attractive 😂😂

TeaGinandFags · 13/01/2024 16:23

KarenNotAKaren · 13/01/2024 15:25

Or say “Yeah and maybe I can be blessed with a miracle cock so I can literally be as much of a wanker as you!”

Effing brilliant response!

Seriously, is he preparing you for a possible future when these miracle tits will appear for real?

Find out. This would bd fonething thst you need to know. And make your opinions clear.

Bumcake · 13/01/2024 16:27

I’d let him keep them for a month, as long as he didn’t try to share my bras.

Unfun fact of the day, more men in the UK die of breast cancer than testicular cancer.

(Largely because testicular cancer is normally very treatable, and because breast cancer in men is very age sensitive so the men who get breast cancer are often too old to opt for aggressive treatment).
